Abstract

La presente invención se refiere a un proceso para el control instantáneo de la precipitación de níquel y cobalto presentes en un licor de lixiviación por medio del ajuste del valor de pH. Dicho licor de lixiviación se obtiene mediante lixiviación ácida presurizada de menas lateríticas y adicionalmente contiene aluminio, hierro férrico y ferroso y cromo, entre otros. El proceso comprende los siguientes pasos: precipitación de aluminio, hierro férrico y ferroso, cromo, etc., por medio del incremento del valor de pH mediante la adición de un reactivo adecuado tal como cal y/o piedra caliza, seguida de la precipitación de níquel y cobalto por medio del incremento adicional del valor de pH del licor, separando finalmente el precipitado de la solución de bajo contenido de níquel y cobalto. El precipitado de níquel y cobalto puede utilizarse para refinamiento adicional. Para mantener constantes las condiciones del proceso, los pasos de incremento del valor de pH se controlan simultáneamente.The present invention relates to a process for instantaneous control of the precipitation of nickel and cobalt present in a leach liquor by means of adjusting the pH value. Said leaching liquor is obtained by pressurized acid leaching of lateritic ores and additionally contains aluminum, ferrous and ferrous iron and chromium, among others. The process comprises the following steps: precipitation of aluminum, ferric and ferrous iron, chromium, etc., by increasing the pH value by adding a suitable reagent such as lime and / or limestone, followed by precipitation of nickel and cobalt by means of the additional increase in the pH value of the liquor, finally separating the precipitate from the low nickel and cobalt solution. The nickel and cobalt precipitate can be used for further refinement. To keep the process conditions constant, the steps of increasing the pH value are controlled simultaneously.
